Patti's Party Palace

-

-

It took a village.... but we finally got Patti moved over the Christmas holiday. She's now in this adorable country house, probably 70 years old, with tons of history and the sweetest landlords ever.

Check out Ethan here with his balancing act. I thought about setting my drink on top of it all just to see how he'd do. Somehow he made it to the truck without droppage.

The new place, what realtors call "a real charmer" or "a great fixer-up" or "has potential!!" needed a smidgen of work before they could move in.

-

Patti picked out some great colors, it's really cozy.

-
My contribution to the work load was deep cleaning & keeping little Miss Whoozit out of trouble.
-
Y'know... feed 'er, play with 'er... pet 'er.

-

I'm not too shabby when it comes to this grandma business.

Patti worked endlessly for at least a month. Luckily, most of it was during the school holiday.

-
Most surprising was how Patti's house became the party house. The place to see and be seen.

-

Definitely the place for karaoke.

-

-
An added bonus?
Seeing so many people we know driving by.
-
And waving/beeping/yelling at them every single time I drive past.

I loved her little place BEFORE she moved in so can't wait to see it finished! HEY how did MIMI miss out on all the parties, I don't remember any invitations? I'm gonna show up on Poppy's doorstep one of these days and sit in the rocker on the porch and wave to the three people I know in Wagener!
